“…Considering both concepts, in [19] the residential energy scheduling optimization problem is solved using two-stage Mixed Integer Linear Programming (MILP) considering the customer preferences and appliances' specifications. Similarly, but applied in a particular case, in [20] a testbed is designed where each housing unit is equipped with sensors, actuators, smart plugs, smart meters, and Unified Home Gateway (UHG). The paper also shows results from implemented applications in Demand Response Management (DRM), energy management, home automation, dynamic pricing, and home security.…”

Abstract:As the number of facilities adopting a Building Management System under the Industry 4.0 paradigm increases, it is critical to ensure the good health of their operations. Business continuity and uninterrupted operations are key requirements for any building, for which Power Quality and Supply Reliability sophisticated monitoring can play an extremely important role. Submetering, as opposed to bulk-metering, implies measuring power consumption for individual units or appliances in a building complex. An Internet of Things mesh network, which brings ubiquitous power quality submetering inside the entire facility, would be extremely beneficial for the management of the building thus ensuring seamless business operations. This work describes a novel low-cost Internet of Things sensor for measuring and analyzing power quality at the input of any individual Alternating Current (AC) appliance, providing an early detection and analysis system which controls those critical variables inside the facility and leads to anticipate faults with early-stage alerts based on on-time data streams treatment. Moreover, the recorded power quality parameters that are processed in the Cloud system can help to reduce energy consumption, as power quality disturbances can be automatically analyzed and even compared to standard values. The proposed Internet of Things sensor will help users to detect most power quality steady-state and events disturbances, while monitoring the energy consumption. This Internet of Things Power Quality sensor is built around a flexible microcontroller, which manages an energy metering Integrated Circuit (IC) through Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI), increasing its original capabilities by including new sophisticated software functionality. Additionally, it wirelessly communicates with a cloud-based Internet of Things Platform to allow the storage and supervision of the different power quality events for the entire facility. An example of the access to the data is also included.

“…We, therefore, consider a TVWS based NAN in this paper. CR operator can obtain TVWS spectrum information either by contacting the geo-location database or through spectrum sensing 2 . Once the aggregated data reaches the BS, it is further transmitted to the remote servers of the network operator using cable or fiber-optics.…”

“…Internet of Things (IoT) and Machine-to-Machine (M2M) communications are the major drivers of smart grid deployment and applications, particularly in residential and commercial buildings. IoT is a broad futuristic vision where a network of "things" such as sensors, objects and nodes is formed to connect and unite physical and digital worlds [1], [2]. The "things" are often called "machines" when they sense, collect and communicate useful data with minimal human intervention.…”

Abstract-In this paper, we consider the utilization of TV White Spaces (TVWS) by small Cognitive Radio (CR) network operators to support the communication needs of various smart grid applications. We first propose a multi-tier communication network architecture for smart metering applications in dense urban environments. Our measurement campaign, without any competition from other CR operators, reveals that the communication architecture can achieve more than 1Mbps data rates using the free unlicensed TVWS spectrum. However, anticipating stiff competition for the unlicensed TVWS spectrum among CR operators and to support smart grid applications with stringent Quality of Service (QoS) requirements, we further exploit the novel idea of high priority channels (HPC) that the CR operator can temporarily lease by paying a small fee. This poses several new challenges for the CR operators, such as, their economic viability while providing QoS guarantees. We develop a real-time decision support framework with several adjustable parameters for the CR operators that enables them to tradeoff HPC leasing cost and QoS. The developed algorithms are simple rules that provide significant opportunities to the CR operators to maintain a balance between spectrum cost and QoS depending on dynamic spectrum availability and smart grid application requirements.

Intelligent systems are driven by the latest technological advances in many different areas such as sensing, embedded systems, wireless communications or context recognition. This paper focuses on some of those areas. Concretely, the paper deals with wireless communications issues in embedded systems. More precisely, the paper combines the multi-hop networking with Bluetooth technology and a quality of service (QoS) metric, the latency. Bluetooth is a radio license-free worldwide communication standard that makes low power multi-hop wireless networking available. It establishes piconets (point-to-point and point-to-multipoint links) and scatternets (multi-hop networks). As a result, many Bluetooth nodes can be interconnected to set up ambient intelligent networks. Then, this paper presents the results of the investigation on multi-hop latency with park and sniff Bluetooth low power modes conducted over the hardware test bench previously implemented. In addition, the empirical models to estimate the latency of multi-hop communications over Bluetooth Asynchronous Connectionless Links (ACL) in park and sniff mode are given. The designers of devices and networks for intelligent systems will benefit from the estimation of the latency in Bluetooth multi-hop communications that the models provide.
